Offseason trade rumors surrounding the Philadelphia Eagles have intensified, especially regarding tight end Dallas Goedert, but defensive end Bryce Huff has also entered the speculation spotlight. Huff, who had a breakout season with double-digit sacks in 2023, is reportedly on the trade block and could be a target for the San Francisco 49ers. The proposed trade would see the 49ers sending a conditional 2026 sixth-round pick to the Eagles in exchange for Huff.

The rationale for this hypothetical trade is compelling. With Robert Saleh back as the 49ers' defensive coordinator, Huff reuniting with a coach who maximized his talents could be mutually beneficial. The 49ers need depth behind star edge rusher Nick Bosa, and Huff's skillset makes him a fitting addition to their defensive line. On the flip side, the Eagles may look to offload Huff for cap relief, reallocating funds to other positional needs or extending key players.
